Every time I write about Tuscany Italy, my heart and my full body for that matter experiences an intense feeling of calmness. I know exactly that this feeling comes from the relaxed atmosphere that this part of Italy near Florence gives off. I have found an ideal balance of enjoying the fascinating city of Florence and its cultural activities at the same time I refurbish energy by either doing a farm holiday or staying in a luxurious villa in the countryside of Tuscany.
Wallow in bliss in Tuscany Italy
The words ‘luxury’ and ‘farm’ might frighten you away, firstly because everybody associates luxury with costly and farm with small comfort. Let me tell you of some fantastic places where I have been and you will see how this is way more pleasing than staying at a hotel in the town centre.
The Fattoria il Lago cottage is found about 40 kilometres north-east of Florence, just outside the tiny city of Dicomano, hidden away in the olive tree covered Tuscan hillsides. The intensive property homes 3 areas which are referred to as villages, each having residence accommodations and an entirely different landscape to admire. The main lodging building is called La Villa and has a pleasurable view of the Dicomano Valley. Merely a short walk away you find Lago village with its corresponding pool accompanied by a pretty garden. The third area is the most old fashioned sleeping quarters called Macerato, embedded among all the colours of green possible. This type of holiday rental is as cosy and reposeful as the posh villas, only that you are sharing a typical ground with other tourists. When you get your Tuscany car rental, you should ask for a good map and perhaps even ask them if they can give more explicit directions towards Dicomano being as the cottage is found off other country roads. Sometimes any holiday home in Tuscany offers the option of giving full directions when booking and also being picked up at nearby train or bus stations. You have to make sure they knows beforehand.
The 11th c. Medieval monastery of San Lorenzo a Linari in Sovicille, south of Siena is an example of those vacation rental places in Tuscany where you can have it all and still have your own breathing space, having your freedom from stress. This magnificent lodging is individual terraces enticing you with Tuscany tours like viewing the hillside and mountains seated in a four-wheel drive automobile, horse-back riding or an aerial view from a hot-air balloon. And if you don’t wish to lose out on the beautiful beaches, there are excursions to the Mediterranean shore, too.
Staying in Tuscany in the Chiantii area in the luxurious villa estate called Villa de Dievole close to the old town of Vagliali. As all villas used to belong to the Italian noble class, the exclusiveness and privacy is incomparable. The decoration in numerous has been respected in the restoration process, so you’re living among many centuries of history. This 16th century villa has rooms and suites with a private guesthouse, too.
Without overtaxing one’s strength, your Tuscany Italy vacation tours can be choked full of emotions and peacefulness.
